Swords of Legends Online is a free-to-play action MMORPG for Windows PC (via Gameforge, Steam or Epic), set in a fantasy world of Chinese mythology, and featuring sophisticated, fast-paced combat mechanics. Players may explore the world with 8 different classes, each with two different roles, engage in PvP encounters, take on dungeons, fly mounts, manage their housing and reach the endgame, all for free. Swords of Legends Online is praised for the quality of its graphics and combat mechanics and for being F2P-friendly / not P2W (all gameplay content is free, microtransactions being limited to cosmetic additions), but downgraded early by many players based on the lack of storyline and quest engagement (partly due to underperforming English translations and voice acting, which is undergoing improvement since).
Game Features
▶ Sophisticated Combat: The action combat system places a panoply of mystical skills at your disposal for you to continually hone and improve in adrenaline-pumping encounters. Skilfully dodge enemy attacks, combo your skills, and switch between action and tab-targeted combat as you choose.
▶ Classes plus roles: Each of the eight available classes has two roles for you to gear up and switch between depending on the needs of your mission. Visit your class’ unique heartlands on your adventures to unlock new quest lines and further improve your character’s skill set.
▶ Chinese mythology plot: Swords of Legends Online tells its saga through beautifully voiced cutscenes. The story weaves together belligerent gods, an ancient war between peoples, and the eponymous legendary swords that were once wielded by celebrated heroes of a bygone era, and which now inspire the quest for peace.
▶ Chinese mythology storyline: Gain access to your very own floating island on which to build a magnificent temple and garden as your own residence. Sculpt the landscape with the huge range of modification options, and gain inspiration as you visit the islands of your friends and neighbours on the back of a flying mount.
